Safari loads main pages of eBay, Staples, etc before loading direct link

We have a slow internet connection at home and I've noticed recently that when I click a direct link to a subpage on a website, like a product page on eBay or Staples, it will load the entire main page (eBay.com, staples.com) and then once that entire page is loaded, then it starts loading the product page.  The end result is that it takes twice as long to get to the page I wanted.  Not a big deal if you're on a fast internet connection, but so frustrating when you're surfing in the slow lane.  Any ideas as to how I can disable this "feature"/glitch?
I'm on a macbook pro retina with the most recent version of Mavericks if that helps (Safari 7.0.4)

Sounds like a cache issue ..
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

  • Itunes loads main page but will not open anything else

    the main page for itunes opens but if i click on something like a song that is under the most downladed category or a movie under the rental category it says it loads but never goes to it no matter how long i leave it.

        Hello crawford1968, your efforts are appreciated! Was there any physical or water damage on the phone? The factory reset is the last resort option. Have you tried letting the phone's battery drain and then charge the device to see if the power on will respond? We can definitely look into replacement options since the device is not responding.

  • Auto Loading web page for ebay login in safari

    HI,
    I wonder if anyone can help me.
    I am running a mid 2011 intel imac with Mountain Lion and Safari all updates installed.
    The problem I have is that ever since I took a holiday in June 2013 I'am now getting a web page auto loading in safari this seems to happen at randowm points either opening in a new tab or even open safari when it is closed. The web page is the ebay login page and has some detail of a user unkown to me in the URL.
    I have spoken with apple support and we have tried clearing the cache's, reseting safari, checking the library files and removing the plist but all to no avail. Ideally I would like to uninstall safari and reload but this does not appear to be an option.
    Also it would appear that I have a memory bleed when safari is running. I have 12Gb of memory that has always worked well but lately is goes down to only 39mb free or less. Quiting safari will return up to 7Gb of free memory.
    Has anyone come across a simular problems?

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

  • When my home page opens (iGoogle) Firefox has quit loading several pages like NY Times, etc. on the Google page. Why is this? Can it be corrected? Thanks

    The question above pretty well explains the issue. The entire page just won't load, regardless of how long I wait. It seems to hang up on csi.gstatic.com

    Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
    * Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
    * Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    * Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
    Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    * Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    * Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Performance issue with loading Proclarity Main Page..

    Hi All,
    I have Proclarity 6.3 installed on a Windows 2008 R2 OS. The Proclarity Reports was working well until last week. From last few days I am seeing a slow response time in loading the Proclarity Main page. 
    Loading Proclarity Main page on Internet Explorer 8 is taking 150 seconds and the same Proclarity Main page is loading on Google Chrome in 30 seconds.
    Have any of you faced similar issue ? 
    Already below things explored
    1. Clear Cache on PAS Tool
    2. Event Viewer, Noticed if there is any error or warning
    3. Tried browsing the Proclarity URL from server itself ( still the performance is slow)
    4. Memory consumption validated on server side. MSSQLServer was consuming more space. Hence restarted /. After restart also same issue ( with loading main page in IE ONLY)
    5. Checked drive space .. All drives has minimum 1.5 GB of free space
    6. Cleared up Proclarity Event Logs 
    The issue is NOT ONLY with loading Main page.. Navigating to any further web pages in Proclarity STANDARD and PROFESSIONAL version is responding VERY slowly.
    The only other option, that I am thinking now is RESTARTING THE WINDOWS SERVER. Which may not be a easy deal SINCE ITS A PRODUCTION SERVER.
    But the loading of web page on Chrome is 30 seconds and on IE its 150 seconds ( i.e, 5 times more..) .. So does proposing to restart the server makes sense ? 
    Any help, suggestion , thoughts on what I am facing.. ? Thanks 
    Regards,
    Aravind

    above will work fine.
    another way :
    you can define a global variable in your application class and subsquently change its value according to your requirement as the name of the page
    and whenever you want to move to some page. jaust assign on onclick event of the button:
    navigation->goto_page(global_variable);
    where global variable is the variable you have defined.
    hope this works for you.

  • Safari loading white page

    I couldn't find people with this issue, so I figured I'd post and see if anyone else has any insight.  When I try to load certain pages on my iPhone (3GS) it loads correctly, but right at the end of loading it just suddenly goes to an all white page.  The title at the top is correct but I can see nothing.  So far this only seems to happen with pages containing a pdf, but it just started doing it today.

    Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    Try Settings > Safari > Clear History, Cookies, Cache

  • Robohelp - main page loops/refreshes continously when using Firefox

    All,
    I have read through all of the posts and unfortuantely I have not been able to find a solution to my problem.
    Problem: When accessing online help in Firefox, the main page loads for the most part but before it's complete, it reloads the main page again. This looping process is endless (main page reloading) and if I click on any links, the link will start to load and then main page starts to loads agan and again...  When I access online help via IE, I do not experience the same problem. In IE,  the main page loads and online help functions correctly. Ironically, another online help was created for a different product that is hosted on the same machine (linux) but when i access that help, i do not experience the looping problem.
    I am using Firefox version 3.6.
    Things that I have tried to fix the problem:
    access online help in Firefox (safe mode)
    use default theme
    access online help in version 1.5 or 2.0 in firefox
    change the page encoding
    disable all plug-ins
    I have also compared all of the javasript files from the working help and the problematic one and for the most part, everything is the same. The working help has 9 more js files but i think its because its context sensitive (not sure).
    One way that I can stop the page from looping is by changing the encoding in the browser. No matter what its set to, if i change it and refresh the page, the looping stops but the Search field does not appear and after a short period of time, the pages doesnt respond.
    Any ideas? Thank your for your time and consideration. If you would like to ask me some questions about this problem, my number is 703.227.4890. Thanks

    You are correct Peter. The file is sent to me in a zip format. I have unzipped it and placed its contents in a folder. I accessed the .htm page that you asked me to. It works fine (locally).
    To clarify -
    I am experiencing the problem when i access online help from the application and by directly entering the url in firefox.
    The other version that was developed for another product works correctly when i enter in the url in firefox and access the link directly. I do not have access to the application to navigatie from within it to online help but i am pretty sure that it works fine also.
    the version is webhelp 5.5. sorry for the confusion.

  • Just moved to ISP PLUSNET and now loading web pages is dead slow

    Just moved to ISP PLUSNET and now loading web pages is dead slow.
    Like loading google will sometimes take 30 seconds to 1 minute but it used to load in a fraction of a second on my previous ISP.
    Sometimes a new URL will take over a minute so I hit Stop Loading This Page and then try again and sometimes it might load instantly, or if not, it might continue to just drag on again.
    It's so frustrating it's like being back on dial-up connection - but worse.
    It feels like PLUSNET have put something on my Mac to slow it down.
    PLUSNET has a restriction on how much I can use per month, which my previous ISP did not have, but according to PLUSNET's usage checker I am nowhere near the max, ie, I am allowed 10GB per month but the checker is showing I have used less than 100 MB so far this month.
    I wonder if the PLUSNET usage checker is slowing down my usage coz it's really noticeable that it has only started to run slow since I moved to PLUSNET.
    When I run a broadband speed check it always shows the feed coming in at around 5500 kbps or so which should be OK.
    PLUSNET told me to go through their test page and I got to the part where it says install a Virus checker and an Adware checker but I'm not sure which ones to use coz I heard some of those checkers are themselves plants that infect you with a virus or keystroke logger.
    Also I have Block Pop UP Windows running on Safari but yesterday a window popped up so that blocker seems to have been compromised somehow.
    I have 17GB available on my HD of a total of 38GB.
    Can anyone help me with this problem please?

    (First, if yours is an Intel Mac, check that Safari is not running in Rosetta, which is enough to slow it to a crawl. If you are running Snow Leopard, run Safari in 32 bit not 64 bit.)
    Adding DNS codes to your Network Settings, should gives good results in terms of speed-up:
    Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu. Click on TCP/IP and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' enter the following two numbers:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    (An explanation of why that is both safe and a good idea can be read here: http://www.labnol.org/internet/tools/opendsn-what-is-opendns-why-required-2/2587 /
    Open DNS also provides an anti-phishing feature: http://www.opendns.com/solutions/homenetwork/anti-phishing/ )
    Wikipedia also has an interesting article about Open DNS:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDNS
    Whilst in System Preferences/Network you should also turn off 'IPv6' in your preference pane, as otherwise you may not get the full speed benefit (the DNS resolver will default to making SRV queries). If you want to know what IPv6 is:
    This is Apple's guidance on iPv6:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8708.html
    Click on Apply Now and close the window.
    Restart Safari, and repair permissions.
    If that didn't do it, then try this as well:
    Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
    Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
    form values
    download.plist
    Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
    com.apple.Safari.plist
    Repair permissions (in Disk Utility).
    Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
    More useful information here:
    http://guides.macrumors.com/SpeedupSafari
    Less likely, but possible, is that the slowness is caused by a Trojan such as the one called 'DNSChanger' or 'OSZ.RSPlug', which can alter the DNS settings of your network connection. This particular Trojan can be inadvertently installed if you have come across certain Quicktime movies where got a window stating that you have to download and install a particular codec in order to see the video.
    If you have agreed to that installation, your system can be infected and your DNS settings altered, which results in your system using the wrong DNS servers, which can slow web surfing to a crawl.
    This can be fixed by downloading and running a freeware utility called DNSChanger Removal Tool which you can download from here:
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/33696
    Once you have run that utility you have to re-boot your Mac, then reset Safari, and re-enter your DNS settings in System Preferences/Network.

  • Iframe page refreshing main page

    Hi,
    I have a form on page one, and also an iframe containing a form on page 2. I'd like to be able to edit the data on the form inside the iframe, and then upon submitting it, have the main page refreshed. Some of the data displayed on the form on the main page is affected by entering data on the iframe page, so this is the reason for it. One possibility I thought of was branch on the iframe page to the main page, and then having some way that the main page could detect that it was loaded in a frame and "break out" of the frame automagically. I hope this makes sense.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Hello,
    Yes the function should be on your main page.
    As for content it depends what you want to do the easiest would probably be just to force a a whole page refresh which is as easy as just callling parent.doSubmit(); from the iframe page and making sure the parent page has an uncodtional branch to itself.
    A more complicated example is something more along the line of this example.
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=11933:17
    Click the show detail link which opens an iframe then click the RowCallBack() button which calls this javascript.
    function RowCallBack(){
    var lRow =parent.g_LastRowOpened;
    var lCells = parent.g_LastRowOpened.cells;
    for (var i=0;i<lCells.length;i++){lCells[i].style.background = '#CCCCCC'}

  • HT1338 My macbook takes forever to load some pages. I have no idea why. Any suggestions please?

    Im having problems loading some pages - takes forever and sometimes never load and freezes everything else up. Its as though Ive pick up a trojan or something (had problems in my pre Mac days). Any suggestions on what i can do or how to find out what the problem might be. Using this site wasnt a problem, pages loaded normally. Seems to be when im on comercial sites and searching for items.
    I use firefox.
    Thanks

    Hi - sorry for late reply. I tried all you suggested and it made no difference to begin with, i couldnt even open this page to reply to you, which is why i havent replied before now. But the next day - all seemed significantly better. Maybe using Ghostery takes time to have an effect. Its something i didnt know about so i am extremely greatful for the advice.

  • TS1702 When I tried to update existing Pages app it did not complete loading update and has 'locked' into loading mode. I do not want to trash the existing Pages because it contains documents I need. Any advice?

    My problem is that when attempting to load updateed Pages the app has frozen in 'loading' mode and will not complete the loading. It is now unusable and does not respond to turning off the iPad and restarting. The Pages icon is in 'shadow' and will not respond . Cannot get the red minus symbol. Can get X symbol but do not want to trash it because it contains many documents I do not want to lose.  Suggestions welcome!

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

  • Flash not showing up on page but works through direct link

    So I just inserted a flash object into my dreamweaver page. 
    The flash works fine the direct link here works: http://www.abbottsports.com/tennis/flash/tennismenu.swf
    But when you visit the page: http://abbottsports.com/tennis/adulttennis.php
    it's just blank space.
    Here is my flash code:
    <object id="FlashID2" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="597" height="115">

              <!--[if !IE]>-->
            </object>
            <!--<![endif]-->
          </object>

    Lots of conflicting info here.
    The page you linked to is using a different .swf:
    <param name="movie" value="flash/topslideshowtennis.swf" />
    which calls for swfversion (actually this means which Flash version to use)
    <param name="swfversion" value="6.0.65.0" />
    which is a really, really old version.. not sure if that even works.... change to version 10.
    Since you have the .swf in a different folder than the HTML Web page, there could very well be pathing problems if the Flash uses any external files ... like images or .xml files. Are there any other Flash related files besides the .swf? What else is in the "flash" folder?
    Your code posted above probably won't work either
    <param name="swfversion" value="15.0.0.0" />
    There is no Flash player version 15 (yet)... change that to version 10 also.
    Then there is the matter of coding errors on the page... of which there are many!
    Validate your code here:

    MagicMenu Enabler is a product developed by the
    people who make Stuffit. From the above log it
    appears that it might be compromising your system,
    and possibly contributing to the problem you are
    seeing.
    Go to your Main Library>InputManagers folder and
    remove the MagicMenuEnabler plug-in (for the time
    being move it to your desktop).
    Then restart Safari.
    Post back
    Thanks, Joseph. Tried it last night on my laptop and it didn't help. I still have lots of similar error messages not related to Stuffit. I am getting frustrated. Sometimes Safari is OK, but I have great difficulty logging in to secure sites like my bank and brokerage accounts. Software Update still stalls. Sometimes I have difficulty logging into this site. But, some websites load OK. I can access all of them on my Windows computer in my office.

  • Safari and Netflix main page issue

    Hi All,
    I have an issue with safari and the main netflix page.  This only happens on the macs in the household, and not the pcs or any of the streaming devices, including the apple TV.  When I try to launch the following page from safari, the safari will load part of the page then hang.  All other browsers on the machine also stop working (Chrome, Firefox, etc.)
    http://movies.netflix.com/WiHome
    Loading the page on windows 7 computers does not present this problem.  In addition, I have noticed that a traceroute from the windows pcs returns a different address than the macs, and the while the traceroute completes on the Windows machines, it times out on the Macs.
    I've removed and re-installed silverlight, performed a dnsflush.  I also tried replacing routers.  I placed our time capsule directly on the cable modem, and it appeared to help.  However, my house is hard wired so this was only a temporarly solution.  At any rate it doesn't appear to explain why the PCs remain unaffected.
    I installed a different hard wired router, and experienced similar issues, so while I could understand one router being faulty, two is suspect.  I would also add that I have this problem both when using a wired connection and a wireless connection.
    Are there any specific network settings that would cause this issue with the Macs?  I am new to the OS X world and am not as familiar with the underpinnings of the networking settings.  Could there be a "stuck" setting somewhere that is causing the browser to use an old dns entry for Netflix?
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Silverlight maybe the problem. Here is a 2011 thread which discusses the problem:
